Fine Arts Winners
by James Bernard
The Phi Theta Kappa Fine
Arts Week, which was held
March 28^1, can be con
sidered in many areas as a
success. The talent exhibited
in all the areas of competition
far excelled the possible
awards gi en. In the category
of painting, Pam Home took
first place and Karen Young
took first place in drawing.
Both artists exhibited fine
^ ployment of detail to
acture and shape.
In the area of pottery, Annie
Moore received first place by
a ceramic pitcher. In crafts,
first place was iwarded to
Sandra Edminsten for a huge
macrame hanger suspending
a huge blue sphere.
Black and white
photography received two
first place winners, Chad
Kapfh^er and Arlene Bums.
Color photography was
dominted by Van Kornegay.
In the area of poetry Sherry
■ Taylor was awarded first
prize with a piece that
exhibited an excellent
knowledge and portrayal of
words and thought schema.
Many talents that were
exhibited during the week
showed a strong sense of
potentially progressive
achievement that still needs
cultivating. Some works
should have received some
kind of recognition for sym-
bolis, imagination, and raw
talent because some pieces
were simply overlooked.

Another year at Montreat is
almost over. For half of us
this is the last year; it is now
time to move on and let the
freshmen take over the phr
i positions of leadership. Many
of these positions have
' already been filled up as the
, hall counselors for next year
have just been picked. All that
I remains is the summer for
: them to contemplate how they
will do their jobs.
What makes a person want
to be a hall counselor? For
some it’s an ego trip in the
notoriety and authority they
feel comes with the job, others
just want to serve and share
the burden of responsibility.
UNC
Conflict
U.N.C., who does quite well
die A.C.C. competition but
seems to have it rough on the
outside, must face yet one
more non-A.C.C. foe this year.
The secretary of the
H.E.W., Joseph Califano,
recently announced his formal
administrative enforcement
proceedures against North
Carolina for the “failure of the
U.N.C. system to submit an
acceptable plan of
desegregation.” Congressman
Gudger’s newsletter of March ^ ‘
24,1978 stated that “Califano’s »
continuing effort to imdermine
the academic integrity of the
16 campus U.N.C. system
seems to verge on a ven
detta—particularly when
coupled with his anti
tobacco stance.’ ’ He then
pointed out that North
Carolina has been in the
forefront of the new south and
especiaUy in the area of
higher education without the
prodding of H.E.W.
Gudger went on to re-pledge
his support of U.N.C., • and
Governor Hunt in their efforts
to provide the best quality of
education possible for the tax
dollar.
Many hall counselors in the
past have found that as one
acquires a position of
authority one gains the
respect of some and the abuse
of others. To find out how
some of next year’ s hall
counselors plan to deal with
this dilema, I talked with two
of them to get their opinions.
Questions—Do you feel that
being a hall counselor will
isolate you from any of the
people you associate with this
year? Joe Call: I dont think
so because if someone is really
your friend being a hall
counselor shouldn’t matter.
Mary Ellen Marquardt: I
think it will, especially from
people that you’ re not that
close to. I’ve really seen how
people can put up walls agaist
hall counselors.
Question:- Do you think
that hall counselors might also
put up walls agaist others?
Mary Ellen: I haven’t really
noticed it, but with myself 1
think it would tend to make me
reach out to people more.
Question—What is going to
happen if you have to enforce
an unpopular rule that makes
you an unpoular person?
Joe: I would have to enforce
it because it’s my job and I
would expect people to realize
that .
Question—And don’ t you
think this will isolate you from
others?
Joe: I’ll just say thatyou’ll
find out who your real friends
are. I’m going to try and be
friends with everybody, but if
somebody doesn’t want to
associate with me because I’m
doing my job then they are the
ones who are isolating the hall
counselor.
For those who have
positions as hall counselors
awaiting them at the end of .the
summer, there will also be
responsibility. Some will be
used to this burden from
previous experience, for
others this will be something
new. Whatever the case next
year plans to be a challenge
for aU—good luck.
CARE Cards For Mother’s Day
NEW YORK— “A way to
heighten the significance of
Mother’ s Day greetings
through CARE’S special gift
cards, was announced today
by Frank Goffio, executive
director of the international
aid and development agency.
“A contribution to CARE in
honor of your mother, or any
woman dear to you,’ ’ Mr.
Goffio explained, “will
provide the poorest of the poor
mothers and their families
overseas with life-jsaving food,
medical aid, health and
nutrition education. Your gift
will not only help them sur
vive; it will also supply tools.
equipment, materials and
know-how for families to work
their way out of poverty and
become self-supporting To
grow more food. To build
schools, water systems, health
and nutrition centers. To
work toward a better future
for themselves and especially
for their children.”
“Your gift will make a
world of difference,’ ’ Mr.
Goffio said. “For example $S
serves 400 children a glass of
fortified milk; $10 provides 60
children with a bowl of
porridge day after day for a
month; $15 builds space for
two children in a school; $25 or
more provides nourishing food
for thousands of children and
training of groups of farmers
to help them grow more food.
“Your mother will receive
an attractive CARE card
notifying her of your special
tribure, or the card can be
mailed to you. The card is
also appropriate for mothers
of friends, mother’ s-in-law,
grandmothers, wives—for any
woman who has been a
mother.”
Donations can be sent to
Mother’s Day Plan, CARE,
